LET EXPERTS GROW MEDICAL POT
Is pharmacist Robin O'Brien's comment that medical marijuana produced
by Prairie Plant Systems is safe for consumption based on documented
fact, or is it only supported by information from Health Canada?
The only reason why Health Canada is growing cannabis in the first
place is that the courts have mandated that a safe supply be made
available to the end users, either from their own grow operations or
by some other means.
The compassion clubs are supplying quality medicine, at a far lower
cost to the end user, than the government has been able to do. Ottawa
is attempting to gain a monopoly in the production of medical
marijuana, whether the end product is good quality or not.
The government does not distill the alcohol sold in liquor stores, nor
does it grow the tobacco grown for cigarette production in this
country. They shouldn't be in the medical marijuana business either.
Leave that to those who know how to do it best.
